Method AddComponentObject

AddComponentObject(Entity, Object)

Adds a managed UnityEngine.Component object to an entity.

Declaration

public void AddComponentObject(Entity entity, object componentData)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Entity	entity	The entity to modify.
Object	componentData	An object inheriting UnityEngine.Component.

Remarks

Accessing data in a managed object forfeits many opportunities for increased performance. Adding managed objects to an entity should be avoided or used sparingly.

Adding a component changes an entity's archetype and results in the entity being moved to a different chunk.

Important: This function creates a sync point, which means that the EntityManager waits for all currently running Jobs to complete before adding the object and no additional Jobs can start before the function is finished. A sync point can cause a drop in performance because the ECS framework may not be able to make use of the processing power of all available cores.
